Draw a diagonal line on the back of each of the 4 inch light print and plain background squares.  Match four of the light print squares with a light blue square making sure the right sides are together and the outside edges are aligned.  Sew 1/4 inch on each side of the drawn line.  Cut on the drawn line.  Square to 3 1/2 inches and press toward the light blue.

Match the remaining light print squares with the plumb squares.  Repeat the process above to create 4) half square triangle squares.

Match the plain background with the red squares and create 4 more half square triangle squares.

Arrange as in the photo above to create the block.
